A Short Story Collection by the author, a teacher, writer and watercolour artist Andrea Connolly collected vignettes, written imprints and perceptions as well as stories over time, out of time. After three published poetry books from her LOGBOOK collection and her Historical Fiction Novel A QUEST FOR LONGITUDE she compiled THE NUTSHELL TALES as a selection of little worlds seen in each nutshell. A wider point of view on ordinary and worldly things bourne from experiences of transposition from homeland to homestead enlivens words to become stories, tales from outer and inner worlds. Every nutshell a kaleidoscope, a cornucopia of resounding experiences. - Spring/ Fall 2017
